sNTDE ADYERTTsRRs.

Nearly every mail that arrives brings
to the average newspaper Office batch
of propositions from so-called advertis-
ing bureaus or agencies, Offering to
take certain amount of space or wish
ing to have certain advertisements in
serted, and to pay for the same in ink,
type, cuts, ETC., to be selected from q
large stock they sllege to always keep
on hand. Not only do they want the
newspaper man to take pay out in mer-
chandise at their own figures, but even
on these terms they want the advertis-
ing done at much less rate than to any
other person. To all such we have
adopted only one method of answer
silence. If advertising agencies in the
east or elsewhere wish to do business
with this paper it can be done only on
a cash basis. Nine-tenths Of the so
called advertising concerns are nothing
more or less than dead-beat affairs, got
ten up for the purpose Of swindlinl
both the advertisers and publisher
And in not few instances do they sue
coed.

they belong.

THE EVENING PAPER.

The Evening Standard of Leaven-
worth in referring to the growing
popularity of the afternoon papers
throughout the entire country, has the
following:
The New York Mail and Express
tells the truth concerning all live after
noon newspapers in the larger cities
of the United States, as follows: "Al
of sudden the tardy discovery has
been made, not only that the future
will belong to the evening newspapers,
but that they are already the great
newspapers of the present. The Mail
and Express anticipates every day over
three-quarters of the news published
by it's morning contemporaries the next
morning"
The earlier and complete publication
of the news by afternoon, as compared
with morning papers, is more strikingly
| illustrated in the west than in the east
for this reason: Europe and the New
England and eastern and middle states
are very largely the contributors OF thC
| important current news of each day
] By virtue of their location western
newspapers enjoy a time allowances
which in this age of quick commune
cation and quick work in newspape
makeup and printing, is of incalcu

four hours later, but actually nearl
two hours earlier than the press tim
of the paper. There is also time ad
vantage of nearly one hour in the gath
ering of domestic news from all pointa
east of Buffalo; and happening i
New York at 8 o'clock, when properl
handled, can be reported and printe
in detail in the Standard news column
sent to press at o'clock.
1t is in the nature of things that tn
afternoon papers shall be the newspa
pers of the future. But, of course, tn
morning paper will have a certain feel
of its own. There will always be rooT
in Leavenworth for one good mornin
and one good evening paper.
The above is equally as applicable
Emporia as to Leavenworth, but is onl
so when reference is had to evening p;
pers which obtain their telegraph new
by wire. OF course plate telegraph p;
pers cannot be considered, as whs
news they have is obtained from tt
! morning papers, which of course
stale before it appears in plate form.

THE ANARCBTsTs

One week from Friday next is the
day for the execution of the
anarchists, should nothing intervene
between now and then to postpone it.
In view of this, the following as to
the personal appearance, conduct, ETC.,
of the condemned men may be of
interest.
Fielden with his long thick hair and
beard, bushy and defiant, is said to
look the very picture of indifference.
Parsons when out on his hour par
ade, wears a soft black hat, jauntily
cooked on one side and seems to en-
joy his sixty minutes freedom. His
hair is always neatly combed, his
clothing neat and clean and also af-
fects indifference.
LIngg grows more like a wild animal
every day. He is the only one whose
demeanor has not been changed by jail
| life. He steps like a person who wanted
to crush something every time he sets
| down his foot.
Spies has a visit every day from Miss
Nina Van Zandt. Her life seems
wrapped up in him, for she never lifts
her eyes from his person the entire
to the many tokens of her love. His
stolid indifference appears to have
grown to perpetual frOwn.
Schwab is as pathetic as ever and is
less changed than any of the con-
demned men. His wife, it is said, will
not be allowed to embrace him before
| he dies.
Engle looks like man who had Civ
| en- up all hope. All the light seems to
have gone out of his life.
Fischer is talkative and inclined to
be very sociable, occasionally trying to
make a pun.
Preparations are already being silent
ly made for the last sad act in the drama
which is booked for Friday, November
| IL.
The authorities are taking all neces-
sary precaution to prevent the gallows
being cheated of it's legitimate fruit.
The shrouds and caps are being made
of white unbleached muslin. Each
shroud will be shaped like bag only
with holes on both side, and gathered
close at top. The hoods will be half {
yard in width and about the same IN
length gathered together at the toy
which will be about ten inches across

IN concluding his appeal in the case
of the condemned anarchists yesterday
Mr.. Randolph Tucker, who is, in con-
nection with Ben Butler, pleading their
cause, said:
I'VE have a right, in my judgment,
to the writ to be heard on the question
whether the constitution has been VIC
lated in order to compass the convic-
tion of these men, It is true they are
SAID to be anarchists. If the court asks
me whether have any sympathy with
them, 1 have only to say that the court
knows me too well to suppose that
have any sympathy with these unhappy
and misguided men, But they are men
and they are entitled to the same pro-
| lection that l am. The same cOnstitu-
ton is over US all. ask the court to
interpose its shield and protect these
men because may need it myself"
An extremely thin argument, but
possibly all true except the last SEN
tence, which should read: 81 ask the
court to interpOse its shield and pro
tect these men because receive a big
fee for so doing.'' And then Ben car
echo the same sentiments when il
comes his turn to plead for his big fee

A GOOD story is told Of the news
paper reporters trip from Nashville to
Chattanooga. They got all the glory
which was intended for the president
and his party and had high old time
and unlimited enjoyment. Here is the
story:
Just ahead of the presidents gor-
geous Jeffersonian SIMPLIFY train, In
pulling out of the Nashville station,
was the special car bearing the
governor of Tennessee and his bed
iZened staff, many distinguished gentle
men and ladies and the president of
the Nashville, Chattanooga s. st. Louis
railroad, Mr.. J. w. Thomas, in his
private car. Accompanying him was
such OF the press contingent as are
| OstraciZed from the presidents train.
| and that means all the newspaper men
except the perfunctory correspondents
| of the Associated Press and United
Press and a mugwump artist for
Harper's Weekly. The crowd of New
York, Washington. Philadelphia Gin
cinnati and Chicago correspondents
have decidedly the best of it in Mr..
Thomas private car, and went ahead
at the rate of fifty miles an hour, while
the president tagged along behind.
This arrangement gave rise to a
series of ludicrous incidents. The peo-
pie all along the route had gathered in
force to see the president, or at least
his train. OF course they knew moth
ing of there being two trains, and the
crowds supposed, of course, our train
was the presidents. The consequence
was that the newspaper men travelled
in continual ovation of cheering and
cannon-fring from Nashville to Chat
tanooga. One newspaper man did VERY
well as Dan Lamont. and was much
admired by the crowds. Mr.. Davis,
train, did very well as Grover CIeYe-
land. The speeches were much better
than the presidents and had no flavor
of cyclopRdia about them-quite the
contrary. After the train passed the
people standing in the rain dispersed
